I love my recreational cycling, nothing too strenuous, just riding around and checking out various places that we visit. The bike will
get me into places that I normally wouldn't go.
While home, I usually have 5 different routes (Zoo Loop-93kms, Jells Park Loop-104kms, Station Pier-53kms, SouthBank-63kms and the Mac
Robbo Bridge-73kms) that I ride and all of them follow the Beach Rd shared path. Nothing beats the various views overlooking Port Phillip Bay.
In my previous life, I sailed for 30 odd years and absolutely loved it, so I love the various conditions of the Bay.

I had included pictures of my current 2 bikes plus some of my cycling routes and also tabled my summarised cycling details.

21st May 2015 - My new Best Friend, Robbie. Ok, I am 24cm taller
and 45kgs heavier, but we are mates.

My NEW treadley that will now come away with us. (Photo taken looking towards Southport).

My Giant 29er that I keep at home. It's too good to take away with us.

Here is my cycling summary.
(since I started recording each of my rides back to August 1999).

2015 was my most successful year with 10,122kms ridden.

In 2016, due to my health dramas in March,September, October and November.
I will not have a target but will ride whenever I can.

My Strava Achievement Awards.
I have joined Strava website. This allows me to upload my ride details and keep track of my distances and
compare against my mates. It is very addictive and brings out the competetive streak in me.

Below is my link to my Strava riding details and my 'achievement awards' that I have obtained since joining Strava in July 2014.
